Is the priority right of way for priority vehicles absolute and unlimited?
Right of way
Explanation
**Priority vehicles**, such as ambulances, police cars, and fire trucks, have **right of way** only when they are on an **urgent service**. This means they must be using their **sirens and lights** to indicate they are in an emergency. In these situations, other vehicles and pedestrians must yield to them.
However, this right of way is not **absolute or unlimited**. The drivers of these vehicles must ensure they do not endanger others when crossing intersections or ignoring red traffic lights. Additionally, they must obey the instructions of traffic officers.
Therefore, the right of way for priority vehicles is conditioned on them being on an urgent service and does not apply in all situations.
